Cone as design element: The Cone Table designed by Verner Panton in 1958, is reduced to few geometric forms. Verner Panton was ahead of the times with his designs.

Verner Panton was always famous for his designs, which surprise despite of the clear shapes. The Cone Table is one of these designs: Watched from above, it is a round couch table. From the sides however, the table by Vitra astonishes: The table board thereby lies on the tip and reminds us of a pushpin. The Cone Table was ahead of the time with the bribing clearness sin design.

Vitra manufactures the Cone Table with a foot of stainless steel and a table top of HPL, with an all-surrounding plastic edge. One can only guess how futuristic and provocative the design “carried so far” impressed in the year of its launch in 1958. But it is a fact that the couch table made by Vitra looks gorgeous combined with the Panton Cone Chairs.
